Abstract

The full non-linear system of equations governing the oscillations of a cantilevered tube conveying fluid in the presence of motion-limiting constraints is solved numerically by the finite element method. Time series, phase portraits and power spectra are presented for solutions corresponding to experimental results given by Païdoussis and Moon [3]. Numerical results and experimental data agree reasonably well. In both cases, chaotic phenomena were observed.
